Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page. I am running the Mash Direct Belfast City Marathon to once again raise funds for the Accord Hospice, a place close to me heart and where my mum spent her final days.

This will be my 2nd full marathon, I ran this race in 2019, was running it again before Covid cancelled it in 2020, and knee surgery cancelled everything for me in 2021. Having successfully ran 2 half marathons in 2 weeks last year, again in aid of Accord, I am challenging myself to complete the full 26.2 miles and raise funds for this great cause, It will again be quite poignant taking part for me as the race takes place just 2 days before the 30th anniversary of my mum's death.

Please know that I am very grateful and thankful for each and every donation, no matter how big or small.
